Welcome to the documentation for Brew-Tools, the CLI toolset for homebrewers
Brew-Tools is a small commandline utility that offers quick access to a set of calculators and tools to help homebrewers create their brews.
Granted, the CLI is not everyone’s favourite interface, and this is by no means intended to replace other GUI based tools.
Its aim is to provide simple and quick access to tools that are usually available in a larger piece of software with all the bells and whistles. Instead of having to click around a desktop app, or wait for web pages to load, you can complete these tasks very quickly with Brew-tools.
For example to calculate the amount of priming sugar needed
$> brew-tools prime
Volume of beer to prime (liter): 19
Desired volumes of CO2: 2.3
Temperature of beer (C): 15
Use only one of the following:
Table sugar: 98.50g
Corn Sugar: 108.29g
DME: 144.84g
All values can also be passed in as arguments directly
$> brew-tools prime -beer 19 -vol 2.3 -temp 15
Use only one of the following:
Table sugar: 98.50g
Corn Sugar: 108.29g
DME: 144.84g
It is written in Python 3 and has minimal dependencies on external packages.
Brew-tools is opensource and contributions and suggestions are welcomed.
